LAUDERHILL, Fla. -

Lauderhill Police spent hours investigating an incident in a neighborhood just east of the Florida Turnpike early Saturday morning.

A man at the scene told Local 10's Tamika Bickham he left his home down the street to find out what was going on. "I just heard some shootings back and forth, loud noises." He said it sounded like several gunshots were fired.

Lauderhill Police have not confirmed why they were called out to the neighborhood.
